The hospital will have asked her what she has been doing, any supplements she has been taking that might have caused some changes, and naturally she will have mentioned taking silver sol if she has been, and the hospital staff has merely noted this fact down, whether it might possibly correlate with the incidence of psychosis in any way or not; that is literally the way hospital staff note things down, and all of a sudden, wham, 'silver might cause psychosis'. Far more likely the copper deficiency is due to something entirely different, and in fact the copper deficiency may be nothing at all to do with her psychosis. For instance, a poultry farmer many years ago found that by feeding his turkeys large amounts of zinc, their growth rate was massively boosted, but a few months later, nearly 100% of the turkeys died with burst hearts and burst blood vessels in their brains. What the farmer had not realized, was that zinc and copper are antagonistic towards each other in the body, and displace each other from the body. Nonetheless, copper and zinc must still be taken together, in a ratio of 15mg zinc to 1.5-2 mg copper, as copper maintains the elasticity of blood vessels, and without the copper, the blood vessels simply rupture and burst wide open. Far more likely that this lady has a either a low intake of copper, or an excessive intake of zinc, or some similar antagonist, as any amount of silver from taking a sol would have been extremely minimal, unless she was an extreme enthusiast who drinks a gallon a day, as some people have been known to do. For instance, some athletes buy 50 mg tablets of zinc, as do men seeking to enhance their sexual potency, and these tablets sometimes have no copper in, and this is extremely dangerous and an almost guaranteed way to suffer a heart attack or a stroke, like the turkeys, as above 50 mg intake of zinc a day, zinc is noted to be toxic to humans in this way, and copper supplementation is thoroughly recommended above that level as an absolute must. I myself will only take even 10-15mg zinc a day when combined with 1.5-2 mg copper, otherwise one is just asking for trouble. Most chemists and doctors tell us we get enough copper from copper water pipes, but that is certainly not true for all of us, as I only drink distilled water, raw milk and pressed fruit and vegetable juice, and some herb teas made with distilled water. Chick peas (organic, grown in properly enriched soil, i.e. with rock dust such as basalt) provide a good balance of zinc and copper, and can be eaten raw, nice and crunchy, but not too hard, after being soaked overnight and rinsed a few times to freshen them up, with a little black pepper, lemon juice and yoghurt (the yoghurt will protect the teeth from the enamel dissolving property of the lemon juice); raw chick peas are very full of chi when raw like this, and form a regular part of a typical Indian breakfast to provide great vitality at the beginning of the day. I have no idea what type of silver she may have been using.
